So, yesterday i decided to make a penpal display board for my room to display all the lovely letters and envelopes i am getting from my penpals πππAll the letters i get are filled with so much love and happiness that i wana see them all the time. Everytime i look at them, it reminds me how loved i amπ€© plus those envelopes with beautiful lettering and embellishments deserve to be displayed! Let me also give you a list of items i used to decorate my penpal wall π
– Elmer’s foam board ( you can also use any styrofoam board. If you donot get 0.75′ thick board, stack the thinner pieces to get the desired thickness)
-wrapping paper to cover up the board. Another awesome idea would be to use thin fabric to cover it up using mod podgeπ This would add good stability tooππ»
– Crafter’s Glue
– Scissors – Felt Fabric (flowers)
– Push pins ( I adhered some watercolored cutouts of flowers and butterflies on them to add fun element)
– LED string lights
I also used an old cardboard mail sorter i had and gave it a quick wrap with pink cardstock and used some penpal diecuts which i purchased from Amanda’s etsy shop (Mail made easy). So, that is gonna hold all of my outgoing mail π Lastly to finish, i had a cute functioning tin mailbox which i put, right next to my board and tadaaaa…its ready πππ
Hope you guys loved my lil DIY and do let me know if any of you try doing the same. I would love to see those π
